# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    This is a summary of the Commission's Order [DA 06-2548] released December 20, 2006. The complete text of the Order is available for inspection and copying during business hours at the FCC Reference Information Center, Portals II, 445 12th St. SW., Room CY-A257, Washington, DC 20554. The complete text of this document also may be purchased from the Commission's copy contractor, Best Copy and Printing, Inc., 445 12th Street, SW., Room, CY-B402, Washington, DC 20554. The complete text may also be downloaded at:                     *http://www.fcc.gov.*                     By the Order, the Wireline Competition Bureau (WCB) grants a request for an extension of time to file reply comments on a proposed process to address phantom traffic issues and a related proposal for the creation and exchange of call detail records filed by the Supporters of the “Missoula Plan.” The Missoula Plan was filed on July 24, 2006 by the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners' Task Force on Intercarrier Compensation. 71 FR 45510, August 9, 2006; 71 FR 54008, September 13, 2006; 71 FR 70709, December 6, 2006. Among other things, the Missoula Plan contained a Comprehensive Solution for Phantom Traffic, which called “for the filing of an industry proposal for a uniform process for the creation and exchange of call detail records.” On November 6, 2006, the Supporters of the Missoula Plan filed a written                     *ex arte*                     proposing an interim process to address phantom traffic issues and a related proposal for the creation and exchange of call detail records. On November 8, 2006, the WCB released a Public Notice requesting comment on the proposed phantom traffic interim process and call detail record proposal. 71 FR 67509, November 22, 2006. Thirty-nine (39) comments on this proposal were filed on December 7, 2006 and reply comments are due December 22, 2006. On December 18, 2006, the Supporters of the Missoula Plan filed a request for additional time to file reply comments on the phantom traffic proposal.                 

The WCB determined that providing additional time to file reply comments will facilitate the development of a more substantive and complete record in this proceeding. Although it is the policy of the Commission that extensions of time shall not be routinely granted, the WCB determined that given the number of comments filed, the complexity of the issues raised in the proposal, and the importance of the phantom traffic issue to the industry, we find that good cause exists to provide parties an extension of time, from December 22, 2006 to January 5, 2007 for filing reply comments in this proceeding. 

*Accordingly, it is ordered*                     that, pursuant to sections 4(i), 4(j), and 5(c) of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 154(j), 155(c), and §§ 0.91, 0.291, and 1.46 of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 0.91, 0.291, 1.46, the pleading cycle established in this matter shall be modified as follows:                 

*Reply Comments Due:*                     January 5, 2007.                 

All other filing procedures remain unchanged from those previously established in this proceeding. 

*It is further ordered*                     that the request of the Supporters of the Missoula Plan for an Extension of Time is                     *granted*, as set forth herein.                 

Federal Communications Commission.

Chief, Wireline Competition Bureau.
